He spent a few quid, 1 hit and 2 misses. He wanted to sign Carlton Cole, you can understand why the club didn't back him.
You seem a little upset at this news!! Liverpool now have 2 world class strikers on board.

I'll admit I'm a tad jealous that you sign a striker when we seem to be having a garage sale.

I didn't realise he'd spent that much either. I had all those down as freebies or near to.

If you can't 'get it', just give up. It really isn't complicated, just look at the dates from when the owners took over, to Roy getting sacked. It has taken us about three weeks since his sacking to sign somebody, a signing made by Comolli.

One day, just one day, you will grip common sense by the balls and master it.

Your time of the month sweetie? All you seem to do recently is troll round ranting at everyone.

Sorry but I don't think Suarez is "world class". Think Liverpool have paid abit too much!

Moyes is on Sky saying Everton won't be signing anybody.....I also expect Neville to complete his move to Spurs, so I reckon being an Everton fan is going to become more and more tortuous.....

Very much so, really getting pi$sed off now. As obviously a lot are considering we've currently sold around 25-26,000 for tomorrow. A combination of pi$s poor displays, a lack of transfers in but a good number out and full priced tickets. If no one comes in I can see a lot of people becoming restless very quickly.

You can keep hold of Beckford, we don't need him back!

He can prove that in the Premier League or not, but he looks quality to me. I'll have to edit him down on Football Manager when they next update the database.

£23m is close to the valuation they put on him initally when Liverpool were told off for being disrespectful.

I tend not to watch the poorer leagues in Europe, mate, I find Scottish football even worse than the stuff they play at the Britannia.

Can't say I blame you. It's shocking most of the time but McGregor, imo, is a quality 'keeper and belongs in a much better league. I think he'd be great in the PL and would benefit either Man Utd or Arsenal.

Havent you signed someone from Sporting Lisbon on loan or was that just a rumour?
Fresh rumours today (admittedly only paper talk) about Pip Neville and Spurs. Would be an even odder signing than Pienaar for me that one, however superb he's been for Everton.

We have but he's a 17 year old kid and will play with the academy until the end of the season. Eric Dier is his name.

Yeah, that Neville rumour just won't go away, unfortunately. I'd be very surprised if Moyes agreed to let Neville go though, club captain and we really can't afford another player to disappear.

Agreed from what I've seen of him he looks quality, just wouldn't put him in the "world class" bracket just yet. I'm looking forward to seeing him play over here though and if he can do well

Not with the form Becchio is in you don't, mate.

TBF to Beckford he's really coming along but needs time and patience to become an asset which I believe he will. He shows the right attitude and you can see his game coming along but it's not fair to rely on him as one of our two main strikers until the summer.

I think if we survive our relegation battle, then the summer could be truly a nightmare.

We have no chance of any investment in the club until Kenwright departs, which he shows little sign of wanting to do, and so you would expect a mass exodus of players who would be hacked off at being at such an ailing club.....Heitinga, Rodwell and Arteta would be definites to go, followed probably by Jagielka and Baines, who would attract big interest....Moyes would surely follow at some point (or he could jump immediately in May to spark the exodus).

Unless a miracle happens, I don't foresee anything but trouble at Everton.
